Great game

Loved it. Really like the 3D puzzle. Sadly skipped most of the games because I just wanted to get on with the story. Also I don’t always get what I need to do. An example would be good. But that’s just me being a dimwit I expect.

I Had Fun "Working" On This "Project"!

I'll be honest. I had my doubts as to how this game was going to play out. First of all, the free trial gives one of the most insufficient playtimes ever — a mere four (4) scenes. That is not a fair amount of time to determine a "go ahead" with the purchase of this game. At the start of the opening scene, I found myself rolling my eyes and thinking, "here we go again with one of the most clichéd introductions in HOA history — the typical car accident, caused by an apparition." But as I progressed, it became transparent that this game delivers some fascinating qualities. This sequel fuses together scientific elements with terrifying traits to create a surreal and weird, yet gripping, plot, which holds me in state of mental trepidation.

The spectacular artwork is embellished with startling, freakish imagery, detailed as follows : statues of talking colossal heads, with tortured-looking facial expressions; a dilapidated house sitting atop a floating island; an abundance of debris — which vary in shape, size, and material — hovering in midair; creepy, human-sized mannequins; and oddball creatures peeking out at you from their hiding places.

I appreciate that the close-ups comprising reading materials do not permanently close out so I can return to refresh my memory. However, the dialogue moves along too swiftly, not staying idle for a few moments until I "want" to click the "continue" button.

The cleverly rendered HOSs are composed of assorted formats. I love the one in which you manipulate a diorama — with a 3D, skewed view — to switch between two village-like scenes, finding items and replacing them back into the scenes. The varied puzzles are entertaining, and they advance your objectives. They range from easy to medium-leveled difficulty. I love the maze puzzle! You collect a plethora of easy-to-spot flowers throughout each location and within the close-ups. Be aware that you must collect a certain number of flowers to unlock various additional content. There is another set to collect as well. In custom mode, the map will indicate the locations in which you can discover a collectible.

I am satisfied with this sequel; it has the whole package. I did not experience any glitches. I rate this game five (5) stars.

OUTLOOK:Grey -Press Repeat

Shame on you Elephant!!
🐘👈🏻

•Did all your creativity and ingenuity hit a wall??
•So hard in fact, you blacked out, and in your amnesiac fog you thought you came up with an original and fresh storyline..??

1. A lone car crash on a two lane heavily wooded road in a sparsely populated area?
2. Only to discover a passenger has mysteriously vanished? Leaving no trace?
3. A single law enforcement agent is on the scene...without backup?
4. A mothers quest to find her young missing daughter, clues pink/cutesy? (teddy bears, ribbons, tiny purses/backpacks, heart shaped jewelry, endearing photos, etc)
5. A no frills standard HO game?
6. Odd slightly Paranormal setting that's mainly just weird disjointed and annoying.

😭Ugh!
The WORST "Has-been" seriously outdated BORING cringeworthy items:
A) The broken radio (anything) with dead batteries...??
B) Broken purse latch..?
C) Coins for Newspaper case...?
D) Decrepit snarling cat..?!
E) Nasty Squawking Crows flying about..??

🥀Is there anything that ISN'T FRUSTRATING IN THIS GAME..??

I am only minutes into it...
and thought I mistakenly downloaded an older version.
The archaic Custom Level icon settings were the first clue.

I am extremely disappointed by the glaringly obvious repetition of the oldest HOP games and absence of ANYTHING new.
Or fun.🏟

The last thing I expected from Elephant is a "been there done that" car crash in a remote forest area with a missing loved one, sleepwalking HOP, forgettable objects, bland characters...
and to be BORED.🙁

NOTE:
🎢New games🌟 should at least strive to be fiercely competitive, proudly showcasing their never been seen/thought of storylines, characters and HOP/Mini-Games, elevated graphics, attempts at more elaborate techniques, newer twists, creative innovations or even just some various types of subtle changes that add interest to the game...
ANYTHING new or different that updates or enhances.

Umm...Nope.

EASIEST DELETE! 👈🏻
The trial was the SHORTEST one in history- just enough to highlight all the worst aspects- and adding to its quick and definitive demise.

"GOOD RIDDANCE to BAD RUBBISH..." 🚮
Lol.

Bye!
